Omit automatic tab that follows the number in an outline numbered

I am using Word 2003 and am automatically numbering my Heading 1 style (Level
1) with "Chapter # - ..."

Following the dash (-) character Word automatically inserts a tab. I have
figured out how to adjust the tab stop, (i.e. adjust "Tab space after" under
Customize), however, I need to remove this tab & just have a space (otherwise
formatting in my table of contents looks funny).

Thanks!
 
Expand the Outline Numbered dialog and select "Nothing" for "Follow number
with."
